Mate, you might want to re-think that
Involved in the millions of projects as I am here, sometimes you run into some funny ones.
Taking the no.1 spot here by far is the "Production Technique Best Practice Sharing : Screwing" one.
Every time I get an e-mail about it, I cannot help but crack a smile.
Man, I feel like a woman
My wisdom has left me, I'm bleeding non-stop needing sanitary napkins, there is only garbage coming from my mouth and I can only eat light stuff.
Guess what? It's wisdom teeth time!
Two down, two to go...................
German bureau-crazy
They're trying to kill me, I just know it.
Those relatively innocent looking people are evil, EVIL I tells ya. Public servants..... no wait, GERMAN public servants are people to be feared, and to be approached with extreme caution.
I have lost months of my life just wishing the people here could introduce just a hint of flexibility into their day to day -between lunch- activities. But only the public servants make me lose the will to live.
Can't I just kill one? Just one? Doesn't even have to be a big one. And maybe, just maybe, torture it a bit?
Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaassssssssssseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?
Working for a mobile phone company.....
......has it's good points.
I changed phones 5 times in the last 6 months, and I get to play around with prototypes months before they come out. :-)
But 2 weeks ago I finally put my money where my mouth is and bought my first phone just for me.
This one in fact and I love it. I don't know what to like more, the fact that it's made out of magnesium or that in the software applications I could find a complete guide on how to make at least 25 different cocktails. Important stuff.....
It also has UMTS and all that crap, but I mean: who cares? Since I broke my digicam a few months back I needed a new camera and I realized that as long as I can take (drunk) pics with it when I am out drinking too much damn "altbier" I'm happy.
Prepare for the posting of many party pics in the future.
Bond, James Bond
After all the excitement of the past few weeks, last night I reckoned it was about time to take it easy for one evening and break into the DVD collection I brought from Shanghai. With recent biz trips of co-workers I'm getting close to having about 1000 (which is NO exception of anybody living there) and it's about time I watch some of them.
So with masterpieces like the "Shawshank Redemption", "American Beauty", "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and "The Apartment" at my disposal, what do I go for?
"Live and let die"
The first Roger Moore James Bond movie from 1973. Now : I'm a GIANT 007 fan, but even I can see that it's a pile of poo. The voo-doo references, the villian is called "Mr. Big" and the funniest lines in the movie as spoken by J.W. Peppar of the Looouuusiana State Poh-lease. But still, I loved it. The cars, the girls, the chases, Moneypenny and the magnetic Rolex. What's not to love?
My favourite JB movie? "On her Majesty's secret service" George Lazenby's only Bond movie from 1969. Not really a popular pick, but I love it and I think he did a great job. Plus Diana Rigg (then) was quite fetching....
